Biological Formula

A mathematician once stated to me, That H-2-O is water you see, So in a sly whim I barked back at him Can you tell me what is K-NINE-P.

Lindsay, you're not only a masterful poetic story teller, but also an excellent limerick writer. Your limerick reminds me of a co-worker who asked his boss how to spell "pneumonia." His boss gave him the spelling and then said, "the p is silent, as in swimming."
